| Materials
lamenating film
iron
scissors
protected surface
Cut piece of lamenating film to cover materials. Place on paper shiny side up. Place cloth under work. Use a dry iron, set low in the permanent press range. Press the film to the paper beginning in the center and pressing to the edge. Trim off excess. Use iron to touch up any loose spots around edges

| Kim this is for the lamenating paper not contact paper. There is a difference as the contact paper is self adhesvie and is thinner
